Let there be no mistake: John W. Nordstrom was no retail expert. But throughout his life, he did what he had to do - hopefully we all have that in us.

I think we were instrumental in saving downtown Seattle. To me, that's the biggest thing we did.

Grandpa didn't have any idea of customer service. But he wanted to make a living. Eventually, we saw it was not in our best interest to be arguing with customers.

It is important for us to understand where we came from and how we got here because it would be very foolish of us to get off that horse we rode in on.

John Brown was clearly flawed in real life. He did some terrible things, but he did some things none of us would have had the heart to do. His moral leanings were unquestionably admirable.

Hopefully, we've been ingrained enough throughout the season that we know what we can do and what we can't do. I think as players we expect it to be called the same way.
